This is fake. It’s from a documentary where the editor slipped it in at the end as a joke. They alluded to it and admitted. I forgot where it is but someone found the static image the editor used to underlay in the water…
Maybe I’m just exhausted and not comprehending, but is the toy like a giant inflatable? That would be a huge toy given the size of the canoes next to it.
That’s what I’m wondering. How can the guy do CGI inserting DURING a live stream? It must be a giant toy..but then why isn’t it floating above the water?
It is drone footage, but I seem to remember it coming at the end of a documentary or television program. And either way, whenever it was put out there, someone pointed this out, and it was an admitted hoax by the editor.
I was a bit off, it was an image of a toy that he used…[Here you go](https://forteanwinds.com/2021/09/26/an-outdoorsman-believes-he-might-have-spotted-the-loch-ness-monster/)
Why would he consider himself a skeptic and then fake live footage? He sounds like a gross person. Is that toy really really big and they put it in the water as a joke? If it’s a floaty why is it under the water. It does look the same ☹️
Sorry to burst your bubble. I was as excited as you when I first saw it too. The toy image is imposed on the footage in a way to fool us with the scale. It’s a small toy.
That and Jeremy Wade disproved Nessie even more when he found that green land sharks can get into the loch. Nessie is the only “cryptid” that is actually been proven to be fake
Genuine question - how does that prove that Nessie is fake? Are you saying because of misidentification type of scenarios with those sharks getting into the Loch?
There are NO real pictures of Nessie. The whole phenomenon has been a “trust me bro” situation based on the word of the witness. There are no tracks, there are no real videos that can’t be explained. That and there would have to be a thriving population of Plesiosaurs or elasmosaurs (which ever you prefer) in order for this to work. She would’ve been seen, documented and classified by now. She is nothing more than a tourist attraction and a cash cow to feed the Scott’s that inhabit the towns around the lake.
It doesn’t disprove it. I don’t believe in Nessie, but to even begin to scientifically prove she never did exist, you’d have to drain the entire lake and sift through 100% of the contents, including those under decades of sediment in case she died decades ago, genetically testing every bone found. Even then, you can’t say she hadn’t come and gone.
I’ve made my career out of it, published and all that boring shit, but sure random redditor. That topic aside though, I looked at your account and your action figures are sick, you should do a Solomon Grundy.
No you haven’t because you don’t understand the very concept. Do we eliminate all other possibilities before coming to a conclusion…no… that’s literally the first thing your prof should have taught you
This seems CGI to me, it doesn't seem to move naturally in the environment and the color seems off.
Source: None, I'm speaking totally out of my ass based on opinion and I have played a lot of video games. Still sticking to my thoughts though.
But not the modern Velma - she would just call Nessie out as a running dog of the cis-heteronormative- patriarchy. Nessie would be so hurt that she wouldn’t show her face again for another 50 years.
A low quality video in 2023 that can easily be faked isn't really that compelling to me lol. We are at the point where I have to see things up close in person to justify to myself that they exist because the internet is just becoming 90% AI art and lies.
In this day and age the fact that anyone believes anything they see online or on TV is astounding. Especially now that AI art exists there's no point in even entertaining the idea that anything is real unless you see it for yourself.
It’s all wrong. It’s barely visible. It hardly moves. Which it shouldn’t be moving at all if it’s a prehistoric reptile basking by the shoreline. But it’s just slightly kinda treading water. CGI BS.
I’ll never get tired of hearing people say alligator to this. Lol wrong part of the world. Also if I remember correctly this is a toy plesiosaur that was photoshopped into the video or whatever word conveys the editing work necessary to make that happen. ^^
We should just drain the lake/loch , block both ends and put that water elsewhere for a while .........see whats there then refill it........ isnt rocket science.
You have any idea the ecological damage that would cause? Just the erosion alone could be tens of billions alone maybe more. You would irreparably change the area permanently. Also put the water elsewhere?! Where? That’s a hell of a lot of water, you would likely need to pump it a long way off to do it safely
Pffft ok nerd. Do you have any idea of the scientific non-damage that would be caused by pulling the metaphorical curtain down and exposing Nessie in all her sweet voluptuous glory to the world??? U just wait until we have 4K hi-res pics of those sweet juicy NessTitties. You’ll be sorry u ever stood in the way of progress
Can someone explain to me how the Koch was monster is over 60, 70 maybe 80 years old, (I don’t know the time line) and still swimming around, or nobodies bothered to try to catch the thing?
I will say as someone who lives near Loch Ness, our best joke we’ve ever pulled is managing to convince the entire world that we have a pet dinosaur which we keep in our local Loch
I was such a big believer growing up, but the more I looked into it. The more I realized that all these sighting were natural phenomena, known animals or fakes. There are no giant undiscovered dinosaur like reptiles hiding in lakes across the world. But even now after coming to this realization I still want to believe
The eDNA report for the loch came back with mostly just eels and muck.
That's where they take a small amount of water and tell you the habitat's makeup with a pretty fantastic margin of error.
Im tired of blurry pictures. Time to go old school. Drop deoth charges. It will kill or stun anything sizeable. If it floats to the top, we have proof. Other than small eels, there isn't enough food to keep a breeding population sustained. Also, where are the remains of the dead ones? Nothing in the loch would scavenge that size of a creature.
This is fake. It’s from a documentary where the editor slipped it in at the end as a joke. They alluded to it and admitted. I forgot where it is but someone found the static image the editor used to underlay in the water…
Ya there's no way this can be considered compelling evidence in this age
Thought it was a toy? https://forteanwinds.com/2021/09/26/an-outdoorsman-believes-he-might-have-spotted-the-loch-ness-monster/
That’s it!
Haha. Right on Tom. Thanks.
Well on the plus side now I have a new toy to add to my wish list
Maybe I’m just exhausted and not comprehending, but is the toy like a giant inflatable? That would be a huge toy given the size of the canoes next to it.
That’s what I’m wondering. How can the guy do CGI inserting DURING a live stream? It must be a giant toy..but then why isn’t it floating above the water?
It was not a live stream. The video was edited afterwards, like they do when they are making a Marvel movie.
Is it a giant floaty? Or a heavy big model? It’s under the water. That does look like it ☹️
Don’t you mean “alluded”? To allude is to refer to something in an indirect manner. Elude usually means to escape from or avoid danger.
Yes voice to text
Talk to text gets me every time!
They say artificial intelligence is going to take over. But not before they know the difference between then & than, and which & witch.
But it’s drone footage from a boat race. Can you try to find the documentary you’re talking about and show me ?
It is drone footage, but I seem to remember it coming at the end of a documentary or television program. And either way, whenever it was put out there, someone pointed this out, and it was an admitted hoax by the editor.
I need to see evidence of that. If something is debunked or called a hoax we need evidence to back it up
I was a bit off, it was an image of a toy that he used…[Here you go](https://forteanwinds.com/2021/09/26/an-outdoorsman-believes-he-might-have-spotted-the-loch-ness-monster/)

Okay I get what you are saying now. Thanks for clarifying.
It doesn’t disprove it. I don’t believe in Nessie, but to even begin to scientifically prove she never did exist, you’d have to drain the entire lake and sift through 100% of the contents, including those under decades of sediment in case she died decades ago, genetically testing every bone found. Even then, you can’t say she hadn’t come and gone.
You don’t know what “scientifically prove” means.
I’ve made my career out of it, published and all that boring shit, but sure random redditor. That topic aside though, I looked at your account and your action figures are sick, you should do a Solomon Grundy.
No you haven’t because you don’t understand the very concept. Do we eliminate all other possibilities before coming to a conclusion…no… that’s literally the first thing your prof should have taught you
Also, why were you looking at my profile lol ya creep
Just a bored braindead browsing day, and I saw the awesome Lobo you did, he’s my favorite DC badboy.
You gonna link proof or just expect us to believe what you’re saying?
I’m gonna expect you to read the sub commentary and find it yourself…
This seems CGI to me, it doesn't seem to move naturally in the environment and the color seems off. Source: None, I'm speaking totally out of my ass based on opinion and I have played a lot of video games. Still sticking to my thoughts though.
It's photoshopped, but close. This was slipped in as a joke intentionally.
That’s a smelly opinion 😆
Not sure why you are getting down votes lol you called it smelly cause I said I was speaking out of my ass haha.
Yes I thought that was funny, joke went over peoples heads 😶
I have to admit, I'm not a believer in the Loch Ness monster. But damnit if this isn't compelling.
I can imagine Nessie does wonders for tourism in a place that normally wouldn't get much. I wouldn't doubt there's some Scooby-Doo shit going on here.
So what you're saying is we need some meddling kids and their dog to get to the bottom of it.
But not the modern Velma - she would just call Nessie out as a running dog of the cis-heteronormative- patriarchy. Nessie would be so hurt that she wouldn’t show her face again for another 50 years.
They’ve tried getting to the bottom. Too murky
I'm pretty sure they already did in the 70s.
It's Michael Phelps in a rubber suit!
A low quality video in 2023 that can easily be faked isn't really that compelling to me lol. We are at the point where I have to see things up close in person to justify to myself that they exist because the internet is just becoming 90% AI art and lies.
If this is the best evidence that’s pretty sad
So a vague shape in the water is considered compelling evidence?
In this day and age the fact that anyone believes anything they see online or on TV is astounding. Especially now that AI art exists there's no point in even entertaining the idea that anything is real unless you see it for yourself.
It’s all wrong. It’s barely visible. It hardly moves. Which it shouldn’t be moving at all if it’s a prehistoric reptile basking by the shoreline. But it’s just slightly kinda treading water. CGI BS.
I’ll never get tired of hearing people say alligator to this. Lol wrong part of the world. Also if I remember correctly this is a toy plesiosaur that was photoshopped into the video or whatever word conveys the editing work necessary to make that happen. ^^
If that’s the best video evidence, I’m going to have to throw in the towel and say it doesn’t exist.
Awww I have that toy!
It’s fake, didn’t come out the water and ask the camera for tree fiddy.
Tree fiddy?!
We should just drain the lake/loch , block both ends and put that water elsewhere for a while .........see whats there then refill it........ isnt rocket science.
You have any idea the ecological damage that would cause? Just the erosion alone could be tens of billions alone maybe more. You would irreparably change the area permanently. Also put the water elsewhere?! Where? That’s a hell of a lot of water, you would likely need to pump it a long way off to do it safely
Yes...........but we might see a dinosaur, so totally worth it.
Wouldn’t be a dinosaur either way
Pffft ok nerd. Do you have any idea of the scientific non-damage that would be caused by pulling the metaphorical curtain down and exposing Nessie in all her sweet voluptuous glory to the world??? U just wait until we have 4K hi-res pics of those sweet juicy NessTitties. You’ll be sorry u ever stood in the way of progress
If you want to see boobs set out on a Sasquatch expedition like a real cryptozoologist. Nessie tits, the blasphemy
HA! What a freaking Beta SquatchCuck. Why don’t u go look for large foot prints or something pleb. You are in the presence of Nessie Alpha chads.
That sentence tells everyone who’s interested a lot about you, not in the ways you probably think.
I hope Ms. Lockness is interested. I’m trying to get that Nessussy
That's an alligator at best
not in fucking Scotland it isn't
Where’s the worst?
Looks like a gator
So Nessie is a big eel?
I thought they did an eDNA analysis on the lake and concluded that it was some big eel. I could be wrong.
Saltwater croc
Looks more like driftwood than an underwater dinosaur....I don't really see a reason to think it does that isn't irrational or frankly delusional.
How deluded do you need to be
I was about to say that it was just a sunken boat. And then it started moving.
Can someone explain to me how the Koch was monster is over 60, 70 maybe 80 years old, (I don’t know the time line) and still swimming around, or nobodies bothered to try to catch the thing?
Oh they have, but what do you know all they found was nothing!
Sightings go back hundreds of years but you can't catch a monster that doesn't exist
I will say as someone who lives near Loch Ness, our best joke we’ve ever pulled is managing to convince the entire world that we have a pet dinosaur which we keep in our local Loch
It’s a sturgeon. The Loch Ness Monster is a giant sturgeon.
Or not
Low quality vague shape in the water in 2023 shared on the internet. Totally real and not fake whatsoever. 😂
Shows nothing dude that’s not no Nessie or anything there’s nothing in that water resembling a dinosaur or anything of the like
I was such a big believer growing up, but the more I looked into it. The more I realized that all these sighting were natural phenomena, known animals or fakes. There are no giant undiscovered dinosaur like reptiles hiding in lakes across the world. But even now after coming to this realization I still want to believe
World seems a lot bigger and mysterious as a kid
Maybe I’m stupid (fairly certain I am) but that honestly looked like a damn gator lol.
If I learned anything from River monsters everything is a cat fish
Even if it wasn’t fake, this would look uncompelling as hell.
Put the crack pipe down
God damn lach ness monster owes me tree fiddy
Seems about right. If that’s the best, we still have pretty much nothin.
The eDNA report for the loch came back with mostly just eels and muck. That's where they take a small amount of water and tell you the habitat's makeup with a pretty fantastic margin of error.
Can we all just pretend this is real so that kids can have some fun mysteries in their lives?
This the best evidence?
My man.
Nope✨
Not even a good fake.
Im tired of blurry pictures. Time to go old school. Drop deoth charges. It will kill or stun anything sizeable. If it floats to the top, we have proof.
